It reads most commercial CDs without problems.  It does not read its own recorded CDs, although my CD-ROM works fine.

I can boot Fedora_2 from the Linux Bible, but then the program announces it cannot find the Fedora Core CD in any of my CDROM drives.  My old Red Hat_8 CD seems to work fine.  My CD-RW will not read the Fedora_2 CD either.

    I forgot to mention this.  The CD-ROM in my new machine is a Liteon LTN485S.
